One of the greatest games of all time. No other skateboarding game comes even close to how good it feels just to skate. This game doesn't need an over the top style, any shoehorned gimmicks, or any other random thing like that. This game is just pure skateboarding at its finest. Sure there's the hall of meat stuff that's equally as fun. Jumping off of cliffs and breaking all your bones is always a blast, but it didn't even need it. The places to skate all feel like natural places to skate and all flow into each other incredibly well. None of these places feel like they were designed specifically for a dude to skate (except the skateparks obviously), they all feel like we are taking advantage of the landscape to skate. Of course you can always spawn in a couple ramps and rails to help you get the biggest line possible. The soundtrack is also fantastic with copyrighted songs that perfectly fit the mood. Of course the game is glitchy as hell, but it honestly adds to the fun of the game. Obviously a 23 year old game is bound to get stale but it's always just to pop in and play whenever you need to just sit back and relax.
